Along the roads and paths

Ajouter aux favoris

In the heart of the Grand-Figeac region, every road and path leads to new discoveries. You can wander along our hiking trails, follow the Way of St James, or wind your way along our narrow, winding roads – in short, embark on an adventure! Set off to explore our landscapes on foot, by bike, on horseback, by car or in a campervan: the Ségala with its chestnut forests and lush green valleys offering panoramic views; the Limargue and its wooded countryside; the Causses du Quercy, with their rocky outcrops; and the valleys of the Lot and the Célé.  Here, the roads and paths invite you to follow them and experience them, safe in the knowledge that you’ll discover an exceptional rural and natural heritage!

Explore

our country roads

As you wind your way along our narrow country lanes, the kilometres will turn into memories. You’ll be dazzled by villages—some perched on hillsides, others nestled against the rock face, or tucked away between the rivers and cliffs of the Lotand Célé valleys.  As you set off along the winding, undulating roads of the Ségala, the ‘roof of the Lot’ will reveal some fabulous panoramic views!

To set off

on our walking trails

Our region is teeming with walking routes – short, medium or long – suitable for all abilities. You can set off for a few hours or a full day on our circular routes, follow the pilgrimage routes, or get away from it all on a multi-day trek to discover the stunning landscapes of the Causses du Quercy. Dotted with valleys and rivers, our trails are home to wild flora and fauna. Various guidebooks list these routes – on foot, on horseback or by mountain bike – through the valleys, across the Causse or around Figeac.
